A British travel blogger by name Lucy Hemmings recently toured India and she faced horrible experience with one of the molester. She written the trouble faced by her in a blog and the blog went viral .But more importantly one of the post gave her respite. Many Indian youths apologized to her.Hemmings shares about details a man aggressively masturbating at her at a bus stop:
She wrote ‘’A few days ago I was sitting in a bus stop in Mumbai, India. The local guy that I had paid no particular attention to moved closer. From the corner of my eye, to my horror, I realised that he had pulled out his penis and was masturbating, staring intently at me. I felt sick.
As much as I hate to admit it, this isnÂ’t the first time itÂ’s happened to me. In fact, chances are, if youÂ’ve ever been to India, youÂ’ll have bumped into at least one traveller who has experienced this sort of behaviour, or heard of someone else who it has happened to.Â’Â’ She added
With India talking about crimes on women the blog has found right readers and it went viral and several Indians expressed their sorry to Lucy for such an experience in India.
After her post about the 'disgusting, pervert of a man' went viral in India a number of men apologised for the manÂ’s behaviour and offered messages of support. She has now received 600 apologies.
Hemmings received messages like, “I read your blog about your stay in India, and from the bottom of my heart I apologize on behalf of the men in my country. Just to let you know there are good men in India who are trying everyday to make the country a better place to live in, and of course it is a trail [sic] and error process,” and “I felt very bad that you had such a bad experience in India. It is really painful when my fellow Indians behave in such a beastly manner, and end up damaging my beautiful country’s image overseas. But, trust me, not all males in India are like that.”
Hemmings truly appreciated the messages and the dialogue gave her hope for gender equality. She explained that she feels safe in many parts of India and loves to travel there.
